Batter hits ball and the play at first is very, very, very, very close! What is your opinion?
Tie goes to the runner.
There is no such thing as a tie. Therefore......
1) When there is doubt, the batter/runner is safe
2) When there is doubt, the batter/runner is out
I know that umpires are told that the batter must beat the ball to the base in order to be safe.....I'm just talking about the times when you honestly do not know and the call could go either way.
Hippie28 and I have been squabbling over this and I would like to get the umpires involved in the discussion.
